In the first 8 months of 2023, Headway JSC has achieved a total output of 320 tons of chili exported to countries such as Korea, USA, Bahrain, Australia, Singapore, etc. In which, the Korean market took the leading position with 102 tons, accounting for 32% compared to the remaining countries.

According to the progression of the first 6 months of the VPA association, the amount of chili exports alone reached 6,958 tons exported to other countries, an increase of 108.4% over the same period last year. This is considered a new door for Vietnam's agricultural products to access large and potential markets.

Recently, Korea is considered one of the "fastidious" markets for importing chili from Vietnam. Some cases are banned from importing chili into Korea due to exceeding the allowable residue of Tricyclazone active ingredient 0.01 mg/kg.

This requires export enterprises as well as transport units to clearly understand and strictly comply with plant quarantine regulations, meeting the requirements of the Korean Ministry of Food Safety and Drugs.

According to the Vietnamese deal in Korea, imported chili will be tested 07 types of plant protection drug active ingredients, including: Diniconazole, Tolfenpyrad, Tricyclazole, Permethrin, Dimethoate, Isoprothiolein, Methominostrobin.
